This weekend some of our OFFICE HQ guys and girls were lucky enough to go along to Lovebox for 2 days of amazing music and got some great snaps of all the fun!

With temperatures soaring to 32 degrees centigrade on Friday and Saturday it felt more like LA than London and everyone’s clothing and footwear definitely reflected this. T-shirts, shorts, crop tops and bikinis were everywhere and sandals, trainers and jelly shoes were the main footwear of choice, with a few in wellies (they clearly didn’t check the weather!)

This humble East London festival has almost doubled in size from last year with 2 huge stages, a Big Top and lots of sponsored stages from the likes of Red Bull, Aperol Spritz and Distrkt. Dotted around the site were giant flowers, trees covered in pom poms, fairground rides and a huge makeshift Manor House where most of the big DJs spent their time on the balcony.

The highlights of Friday were ASAP Rocky, DJ EZ and Chase and Status who closed the first day with an incredible set that had the crowds going crazy. It may of helped that a huge electrical storm hit as they came on, so in-between lasers and lightening strikes the visuals and atmosphere were incredible.

Saturday had a lot of house DJs and was a bit more chilled with the favourites being Canadian songstress Banks and legendary rapper Nas cracking out some 90’s hip hop classics. MIA closed the festival with a spectacular light show as the entire crowd had handfuls of glow-sticks, but unfortunately her set was cut short due to a power cut which didn’t go down too well with the hyped up crowd.

All in all in was a fantastic festival and we are lucky to have it on our doorstep at OFFICE HQ so we will definitely be back again next year!!

Following an incredible line-up on Friday, including Pharrell, Tinie Tempah and Foxes, festival-goers at Wireless were warmed up for the weekend’s festival antics. Saturday was another jam packed day of music from the likes of Labrinth, Rudimental and Kanye West.

With showers forecasted, out came the pac-a-macs and jellies made way for wellies as the crowds poured in. OFFICE favourites Hunter and JuJu were spotted throughout the day on many a fashionable foot.

A midday downpour did nothing to dampen the spirits as Azalea Banks took to the stage performing a number of hits included last year’s no.1 hit, 2-1-2. A hard act to follow, yet Labyrinth stole the style stakes, performing in a striped two-piece which had him looking more convict couture than pop star!

The sun came out just in time to see Rudimental start their set, pumping up the crowd ready for the day’s big headline act to follow. As one of the edgier festivals, the fashion was a refreshing take on some of the summer’s typical trends. Tassels took a back seat whilst slogan tees were dressed down with daisy dukes and cool kicks; Nike and Converse reigning supreme in a crowd of festival fans.

Fashionably late and wearing his signature attitude, Kanye West appeared as a roar of screams filled Finsbury Park. Performing his full set in a fierce face mask, the male diva dominated the stage for two hours, entertaining the crowd with hits such as Stronger, Jesus Walks and Flashing Lights. The rapper wrapped up with a dedication to Drake who was unable to perform. But this certainly didn’t deter the fans who were still there in the thousands as the day came to an end.

The Sunday main stage was graced by Ellie Goulding, Outkast and Bruno Mars, smashing sing-a-long hits such as Ms Jackson and Just The Way You Are. Kimono’s and ripped denim was the outfit of choice for many, topped off with studded ankle boots or Dr Martens to complete that rock chick look. The rain poured but this didn’t stop the party for those dedicated festival goers who saw Wireless off in true British fashion!

I have just got back from Glastonbury and I was asked by the lovely people at Office to do an Instagram takeover! There is no better festival style than at Glastonbury, despite the mud and rain, girls went all out with full on festival chic and it was most certainly inspirational! I have just caught up with the celebrity street style from the weekend and they totally rocked it too!

From the festival my advice and must haves are; a good pair of wellys; and boots for when its dry (my Domino tan fringe boots from Office were perfect for the sun!); an array of bright and patterned kimonos; a good selection of hair accessories and sunnies and definitely a rain mac. Festivals are the only time you can clash up patterns, colour and texture to the max and look totally right!

The best acts I saw were Robert Plant, Kasabian and Dolly Parton to name a few! Glastonbury has been one of the best experiences of my life and was totally overwhelming and visually beautiful. I highly recommend everyone to go at least once in their life- I will certainly be going back next year and even enjoyed the mud.. After all what’s Glastonbury without mud and rain!?

My favourite time of the year is festival season as I can go totally OTT with pattern, colour and accessories.. don’t forget glitter! I went for fun looks experimenting with textures and layers which I hope you like! My favourite outfits were my 1st day sunflower look and butterfly day look where I wore my crochet skirt and Indian vintage top. Never take yourself to seriously with festival looks and be confident and fun with your outfits to really fit in. I took my studded wellys, my domino fringe boots from Office and a pair of sandals (just in case it wasn’t muddy haha!). Everyone had Hunter wellys on – there the ultimate festival welly aren’t they!

Hope you enjoy my images and enjoyed the takeover, do check out more on my blog www.twoshoesonepair.com @twoshoesonepair

This weekend was packed full of sunshine and great music echoing from Field Day in Victoria park, London.

The first London based festival in the calendar saw the likes of Metronomy, Pixies and Danny Brown hit the stage in Hackney and the cool kids of East were out in full force.

We sent out guest blogger Isabelle Moore to snap some street style picks and it was clear the festival guests didn’t compromise their style for the unpredictable weather. Vans, jelly shoes, sliders and Dr Martens seemed to be the footwear favourites at Field Day with the classic Hunter welly remaining a festival staple.
